    Re: Galpin Pink 2002

    Hi Guys .

    As the proud owner of the other pink thunderbird produced by galpin I am surprised to see the "mary kay " and other "pepto bismol " comments .
    Some of you apparently appreciate this color scheme .That's good .
    They produced just two of these pink cars based on the 57 TBird color .These cars were originally all black and galpin stripped them down , repainted them and reassembled the whole thing while having the interior redone .
    The overall quality of work is factory quality and maybe even better .
    They charged 70.000 dollars for those when new .
    According to the manager of GAS they did two like these, maybe three , he is not entirely sure about the third one in pink since they made also the mint ones .
    Mine is the 2003 so the second model .
    TO the hardcore "macho" this car grabs a lot of attention and compliment from the ladies and is a great introduction to conversation as a starter.
    So no worries for your manhood .
    People that have known the originals pink ones in their time immediately relate to this car and tell me stories I wouldn't know otherwise .
    If I could afford it , I would buy this 2002 T_Bird immediately .It's the best color to reveal its beauty .I went to Bob's big boy a couple month ago in burbank at the friday evening gathering and a 1956 corral sand was there .It was simply stealing the show and the crowd was all around it ..
    SO if someone hesitates and would love to buy this 2002 , just go for it .You won't regret it as you'll have the most fantastic original american car produced in decades .
    I know the others are looking good too.... just not as good :)

            Chris, one thing I will say is I like the photo in your avatar. The car definitely looks better with the 7 spoke chrome Ford wheels and no wide whitewalls in my opinion.

            I agree that Galpin did a quality job on these cars. But if I was going to own one, I would need to start wearing my contact lenses again and grow out my sideburns so I look more like Elvis.

              Looks like this car was sold as it's no longer in Galpin Ford's preowned inventory.

                Hi there,

                Here is a small observation based on the different color choices available in these cars.

                I bet everyone at some point as walked into a restaurant and spotted the dessert selection first. You tell yourself your'e gonna go easy and save some space for one of them scrumptious looking sweetey things. Quite often I tell myself, " OK, tonight I'll just have an appetizer then save myself for a lovely dessert".

                Well, I alaways change my mind and by the time I've had a salad and a steak or whatever for the main course, I'm just too full to order the lovely dessert.

                That is what the pastel shades remind me of. Banana, Strawberry, Mint, etc..etc...

                Our car is all black and I love it but if I was ever to be in a position to have a second one, - I would love that pink one as a contrast.

                That sums up to me the essence of the 'dessert shades'. They do look more fun than the more 'conservative' shades, I believe it is what used to be called 'kitch' I think.

                Just one person's view. Gordon.

                    I like they way you think Drew, why save room for dessert, eat dessert first and save room for the entree!

                        Some lurker here was probably helped by our discussions about the car.

                          Sorry...no offense intended. I just don't like pink, regardless of the car.
